After the Dragonstone episode, we knew where things stood inside the seven kingdoms. With Daenerys having reached the Dragonstone island, a war between the Targaryen and Lannister forces was imminent. And we saw just that in the Stormborn episode.

The episode started off with Melisandre visiting Dragonstone to meet with Daenerys. On her suggestion, Tyrion was commanded to invite Jon Snow to the island so he could "bend the knee" to the queen.

Receiving the invitation, Jon Snow consults with his bannermen, and despite resistance, leaves for Dragonstone, handing control of the North to Sansa.

He wasn't in too much hurry though. Littlefinger did receive some bruisings when he came to talk to Jon Snow about Sansa.

On her journey to King's Landing, Arya hears the news that Jon Snow is now the King in the North. So she changes plans and decides to head back to Winterfell.

On her way, she also meets Nymeria, the dire-wolf she'd lost in season 1. Turns out that the dire-wolf is still angry at Arya, when she declined her persuasions to accompany her to the North.

We also saw Cersei plotting against Daenerys, taking a pledge of allegiance from her bannermen.

The episode ended with an epic sea battle between Euron Greyjoy and Yara Greyjoy in which Euron had the upper hand. We'll now wait and see what happens to Yara and Ellaria, as they were both taken as prisoners of war.

Update: Dragonstone
Season 7 premiere broke all Game of Thrones premier records. The episode started off with Arya avenging the red wedding by killing the Frey family.

We also see a new alliance being formed between Cersei and Euron Greyjoy, which will probably lead to marriage. We also learned that Euron Greyjoy is much more charming and charismatic than we previously thought.

Ed Sheeran made an appearance like we predicted in our blog. We also witnessed the sufferings of Sam while he is away at the Citadel, learning to fight against the white walkers. We find that there is hope of defeating "the others" when Sam discovers huge reserves of Dragonglass in the Drangonstone island.

Since the premiere, Game of Thrones have released a new teaser for the second episode. We find Daenerys plotting to attack Cersei's army. On the other hand, Jon Snow wants to meet Daenerys, obviously to get his hands on the Dragonstonreservesrs spread on her island.

We hope that this episode will be as good as the previous one. The winter has definitely come, and so have the great wars!
